Greetings,
I have git-svn cloned a repo from its anonymous http url using git2svn.

This worked fine but in order to commit back, I would need to use the committer-only https url.

I googled and found the 'commiturl' config option, as well as the --commit-url switch on dcommit. Thank goodness for these!!

I edit my git config to look like this
[svn-remote "svn"]
        url = http://anonymous.blah.com/myproject
        fetch = trunk:refs/remotes/svn/trunk
        branches = branches/*:refs/remotes/svn/*
        tags = tags/*:refs/remotes/svn/tags/*
        commiturl = https://svn.blah.com/myproject
and prepare to dcommit my commits from SomeBranch

git co SomeBranch git svn dcommit

or
git svn dcommit --commit-url https://svn.blah.com/myproject
which results in the following:
Committing to https://svn.blah.com/myproject ...
        M       plugins/somefile.txt
Incomplete data: Delta source ended unexpectedly at
/usr/libexec/git-core/git-svn line 848
However, the following syntax works correctly:

git svn dcommit --commit-url https://svn.blah.com/myproject/branches/SomeBranch

I cannot add the 'branches/SomeBranch' to my config and I thought git-svn would have deduced them from the branch I am currently on? Is this expected behaviour, a bug in my repo or a bug in git-svn's code?

I can commit so it is not a problem but I would appreciate any information that anyone has on this.

Not subscribed.
Many Thanks
Paul
